Hey climate changers, I got your enormity right here.

"If their worst fears are realized, there will be calamatous reordering of life, the social fabric of civilization will be torn apart, and millions will die."

All of which have happened multiple times in geologic history, INCLUDING "the social fabric of civilization will be torn apart" (which happened at the end of the last Ice Age). There is some evidence that a relatively high neolithic civilization existed in Southeast Asia, which was flooded out when sea level rose. And the only reason "millions will die" is if they are too stupid to move out or build dikes.

SCIENTISTS say they are haunted by the failure to convey to the world just how close Earth is to climate catastrophe.

Pardon my (cryptic) French, but they haven't tried to convince people (as if that could be done).....

.....They have tried to scare the crap out of little old ladies and impressionable kids with hysterical propaganda.....

That is not how you make a convincing argument. They certainly have not convinced me.
